and this is where woot has screwed things up for those who put these Threadless style of pictures in their sigs. Because woot captures the image once, it doesn't update. Consequently, since I put my image up before it was approved, it will never show that it is approved, so I had to remove it from my signature.

That'll do, frog, that'll do.
geez, they are so screwing up every image that gets posted. It should NOT BE BLURRED. Look at it on the derby page, you'll se that it is sharper than this. sux, seriously. SERIOUSLY.

Oh, that stinks. I noticed it too, because I updated an image in my sig (which had the same name) and then was very puzzled to why it wasn't changing after I uploaded it. I uploaded and refreshed quite a few times until I realized what was going on:p Wonder why they are doing that.
I'm guessing woot wouldn't care much about images to competing sites not working right though;)

Our head developer explains the changes a bit here. Basically, it was a change to prevent Great Evil from occurring to customers.

riiiiight. just not the greatest implementation, eh? and, your versions are BLURRY. the version on the derby page is sharper than the version on these pages. so you AREN'T just doing this to keep us safe from the Bulgarian creepy dudes, you are cheaping out on the server space. Geeze, spend a little money on your servers to have enough space, dudes.
